Rare opportunity to purchase a development plot within a country estate in Knockholt, Sevenoaks, with planning permission granted to convert existing buildings into two separate residential dwellings. To be sold in one transaction, the site consists of two plots, "The Barn House" and "The Squash House", which will share a split of 2/3 an acre of land.THE BARN HOUSE - The proposed Barn House comprises a Grade II listed timber framed barn with additional outbuildings. These buildings are in a poor condition but retain their original character and appearance. Planning Permission has been granted by Sevenoaks District Council, to convert the timber framed barn and shed into a dwelling, demolish a modern agricultural building and workshop building and erect a two storey detached double garage/store with car port. Planning reference: 9/01243/LBCALT.THE SQUASH HOUSE - built in the early 20th century and thought to be the oldest squash court in England, planning permission has been granted to convert the squash court and adjoining former stable block into a four bed dwelling with glazed link connection. Permission includes the removal of a greenhouse structure to the east of the stables and replace it with a 32m2 (44m2 with open veranda) two bedroom annex. Planning reference: 19/01198/FUL. The proposed development of the Squash House could provide 6 bedrooms in total. Note this property is curtilage listed.Access to the site is via a private track off Rushmore Hill which will be shared with the main house (not for sale) and the buyer will be responsible for improving the condition of the track. The buyer will also be responsible for installing a grand water fountain, gates to the main entrance and some external repairs to the main residence. The plots are within the beautiful grounds of the main house which attract a variety of wild flowers, game birds and deer. The house was the primary residence for Lady Lyle of Tate and Lyle Plc. It is thought that Sir Winston Churchill, the former Prime Minister visited the estate on occasion during his time in power. The estate is ideally positioned off the prestigious Rushmore Hill and set within 30 acres approx. of privately owned Kent countryside. The property is within a short drive of the amenities in Green Street Green, Chelsfield and Knockholt Stations.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
